The Meaning of Home

The meaning of home is hard to explain. Home is a feeling, a feeling of happiness, joy, being together or even sadness, anger or guilt, anything. Home feels welcoming and open. A home does not have to be a house; a home can be wherever you feel at home. Home has an incredibly special place in your heart. Home feels like being wrapped in warm blankets. Home smells like food cooking in the kitchen. Home looks like family and friends all around you. Home tastes like salty, sweet, sour, and spicy, all in the best way. Home sounds like your family and friends sharing supportive and kind words. Home is a special word that means many, many things, but if I named all the meanings, I would be here for hours. Look at home from different perspectives. Home means more than just the place you live. Home is made by memories, memories that make a house a home. The meaning of home is different for everybody, it depends how you look at it.
